National Teams:
It was not a good start for the Eagles in their World Cup qualifying campaign as they were dominated by Canada 27-9. A try from Phil Mack less than a minute into the match set the tone for what would be a disappointing day for the Eagles. You can check out the highlights from the match here.
With such a disappointing performance only a few of the Eagles received decent ratings in our player rating.
Head coach Mike Tolkin and leader Chris Wyles were disappointed with the result.
In case you missed the match you can see our match commentary to check out how it went down.
Alex Goff looks at the lack of offensive from the Eagles, specifically in relation to box kicks.
The one piece of good news for the Eagles, if you want to look at is this way, is that they didn't slip in the IRB Rankings.
Congrats to Titi Lamositele who becomes the youngest Eagle of all time. The cap could also clear the way for a professional contract in England.
